Q: I am doing a patio with Indian Sandstone and using your sealer (wet look) as a top surface - brilliant. After a week or so of the sealant going on one paver started to bubble up. All the stones around it are fine - just this one stone. So I need to remove the sealant on this one stone and start again. What is the best product you supply for this? Would the paint and varnish remover do it? Thanks
A: If you are looking to remove the sealer, you should be able to do so by using the residue remover without dilution. Alternatively, the Paint & Varnish Stripper and the Sealer Stripper should also remove the sealer.
